white spot

Recommended Posts

Hi babes,

Everybody in this forum talking regarding whitening product especially to get rid scar on your face. I just wanna to know if anybody have a problem like i do. Recently i notice that i have white pigmentation on my chest area, thigh and now spread to my back. My skin a bit tan so it kinda spoilt my trends to wear skirt and backless tops.Did anybody know any treatment or product that i can used to get rid of it or at least tell me somebody have it too. I'm start thinking that i'm the only human being can't wear skirt and seksy tops.

I have been to doctor, and this is what they said, i notice it recently because it's more visible now but it's always there for almost 4 years now, i dont have any symptom at all like itchiness or discomfort. Its just happen.Anyway thanks you guys, i just hope somebody have similiar conditions with me.

Vitiligo?

Vitiligo is a common condition that affect 1-2% of people worldwide. It is usually visible as a patch of white skin without pigment. The cells that would normally produce the skin's pigment, are destroyed by the vitiligo. There is no know cause of vitiligo, but it is more common with people who have certain autoimmune diseases. The autoimmune diseases are: hyperthyroidism (an overactive thyroid gland), adrenocortical insufficiency (when the adrenal gland does not produce enough of the hormone cortiscosteroid), alopecia areata (patches of baldness), and pernicious anemia (a failure to absorb vitamin B12 which is caused by a low level of red blood cells). Vitiligo is also common within families, although not completely hereditary. A doctor may diagnose vitiligo by researching one's family history, taking blood tests, and taking a small sample of the skin.

Well, I should say it could be Vitiligo though... If so, we can't do anything on it, but if is Lentigo, by consuming more black pepper it would help.

Hi Catherine85,

I'm glad that somebody understand what i'm going through finally. I basiclly fed up for somebody keep telling me i have fungus infection. :mumbling: FYI my skin still the same :( but i got some new informations from

http://vitiligoforum.com/forums/5/ShowForum.aspx. One of the member seems satisfied with Dr Li treatment something about oils that your have to apply to affected areas. She said her skin improved dramatically so she happy.

I'm not sure if i would try it or not bcoz it's difficults to find something thats work for you. Anyway tell me if you have any breaktrough heheh and checkout that forum seems helping with the questions if you have something in mind.

hi

there is also another matter to cure this by using garlic.. just rub i on the area thn go to bath.. it take times to cure but i think by 1week u can see the diffs.. This method use by my cousin whn she got some white spots last time.. but garlic abit stinky thou it might help.. there is oso another method by usin if im not mistake is sulfur acid (yellow powder) usually the use on camp to prevent the snakes.. just make it s paste and apply on the area.. 3rd method is to buy the soap usually sell it at maket by china ppl but thy claim is the mixture of sulfur acid thn turn it to soap (but it din really work out for my sis)..
